Thanks so much everyone. I will up the sodium a bit

I like benefiber but I'm new to keto so it may have drawbacks I'm not aware of

Thank you :)

You are correct no harm to do it. I will. Thanks

I am feeling better. Not the greatest amount of energy but not as bad as I thought. They said the ketosis would dampen hunger and it does. The severity of the medical conditions and the family history plays a part in their recommend on surgery or not. My diabetes was not good and my grandmother died early from diabetes…

Thank you for the advice

No worries. Thank you for the advice

I didn't know low calorie diets were not part of the forum rules. Since this was low carb diet I thought it would be fine. No worries I'll sign off the group then. I don't want to break any rules or offend anyone. I was looking for help with a low carb lifestyle and didn't know it was so rigid here. Thank you for informing…

They said to continue this until I'm down 40 and then I won't need surgery. They said expect 3 pounds a week till I reach the goal of 40 pounds. I'm 5 foot 4. I started at 198 but have diabetes, sleep apnea and hypertension so I qualified for the program due to those medical conditions. I thought adding carbs would be bad…

It's a medically supervised program before you would have a surgical procedure for weight loss. I'm trying to modify it since I have to do it and eliminate anything else later.

This is a mandated program that you have to try before you would qualify for a surgical intervention. I'm trying to make the best of it and gain valuable insight from the knowledge members in this forum. My goal is to make this program work by modifying it. And in the end not have a surgical intervention. But thank you…

Any constructive feedback would be nice. Thank you anyway.

Thanks for the advice.

Thank you everyone for the advice. Figuring out what kind of ketosis to stay on after this period will need some research Sorry I did miss it. I'm on a program through www.betterMD.net

Lol. I had my gallbladder out years ago. I haven't had any ill effects so far

This plan averages 72 grams protein/ 11 grams fat/ 59 grams net carb per day ( only subtracting fiber grams not sugar alcohol). They say to stay on the plan until goal weight is almost achieved and then transition. So I've 40 more pounds to go

Hi I'm new here. My goal is to stick with the plan and work out 3 days a week. I'm on a physician monitored very low calorie protein plan. It's day 7 for me. Still a bit foggy. But I lost 7 pounds in these first 6 full days so I can't complain.

Thanks

I just started a physician monitored low calorie diet that is based on ketosis 4 days ago. I have lost 5 pounds so far. I feel dizzy at times but I know it can take up to a week to get into ketosis. I'm excited for the benefits. I'm diabetic and am surprised at how stable my blood sugars have been on 600 calories a day. It…

would love to start the program and have a buddy. Please friend me
